“Adaptive inquiry” is the product of the synergistic relationship between what a student brings to the classroom, the teacher’s ability to shape a lesson in response to the needs of the student, and the method of final assessment. This new form of assessment requires teachers to reexamine curriculum, instructional techniques, and measures of achievement. Effective teachers need to possess broad pedagogical knowledge, a content base, and a pedagogical-content repertoire that varies from direct instruction to open-ended inquiry in order to enhance student achievement.
